Tutorial 116 - Closure
🕑 Added 2016-04-27 07:07:22 +0000 UTC Closure is perhaps the most important gestalt principle for the sketch artist wishing to use economical marks to convey information, playing on the viewers own inventiveness driven by the memory of familiar forms. We are simply connecting the dots when we see closure in action.
Impressionists use this principle and digital speed painters apply marks made with cleverly designed brushes to imply form. Wherever we see lost edges in an image, that's closure at work. To see an example, take a look at tutorial number 7: https://www.patreon.com/posts/tutorial-7-lost-4130331
